Anyway, in this week we talk about Will Smith and Chris Rock, Lungol being "a big proponent of violence", and Dylan reflecting on fatherhood as a full-time daddy. We discuss the unconsensual distribution of intimate media in Pasifika communities and the imperial influences of China, Australia, NZ, and the US in the Pacific Islands. Dylan drags some white man for calling for the invasion of the Solomon Islands and Lungol discusses the infrastructure of mental healthcare in PNG.Follow us online!InstagramPodcast PlaylistLungol:InstagramTwitterDylan:Talanoa Talk

This week we talk justice, first dates, and our relationships with social media. In this episode we discuss the acquittal in Kumanjayi Walker's case and examine Australia's treatment of refugees with the release of nine people from Park Hotel and the 12-month visas available to Ukrainians trying to flee conflict.

In this episode we discuss Sorcery Accusation–Related Violence (SARV) in Papua New Guinea, Melanesia's politicians giving solidarity to Ukraine but not West Papua, the floods in NSW and QLD, and the discourse around Kanye West, mental illness, and domestic violence. Dylan had an incredible Monday that brought great news and even better plans and Lungol blames his parents for being single because their relationship is a healthy and models what he's willing to accept.Things We MentionedProsecute 'SARV' PerpetratorsSorcery accusation related violence in Papua New Guinea: The impact of SARV on childrenDevelopment Policy Centre Discussion Paper No. 97 (By Miranda Forsyth, Philip Gibbs, William Kipongi and Ibolya Losoncz)Follow us online!InstagramPodcast PlaylistLungol:InstagramTwitterDylan:Talanoa Talk

We discuss PNG's economy in the context of Covid, Fiji's upcoming elections, the invasion of the Ukraine, and so much more.Please forgive the audio of this episode, we had a few mishaps during our recording session this week.  Follow us online!InstagramPodcast PlaylistLungol:InstagramTwitterDylan:Talanoa Talk
